Our own Vermont Spotlight host, Olympian Doug Lewis, has arrived in Whistler and is lovin' life! He reports much excitement, anticipation (and security) in the air as the Olympic Games are set to begin this weekend. He is working for VANOC (Vancouver Organizing Committee). His primary role will be as "live announcer/commentator" for all the Alpine events. This means that if you're at the race venue and cheering in the stands, you will hear his voice introducing the athletes as they step into the start gate and listen to his commentary as he analyzes their race runs. The action starts this weekend with the Men's Downhill.

Additionally, he'll be calling into Sirius Satellite Radio with live race updates at 9:35 am each weekday morning on Mad Dog Radio (Sirius 123, XM 144). He'll call in each evening as well with Dino Costa on Mad Dog Radio (time TBD). Lastly, he'll be working on the side with Universal Sports to bring us special features from the mountain. We have no idea when or where those will play, but will try to find out!
